My LAZY BREAD. The most EASIEST [OPEN CRUMB] sourdough bread. | by JoyRideCoffee

Lazy Bread - from my point of view is the most easiest open crumb bread.
At the base of this bread I put the ideas below:
- As a home baker, the time you spend on bread is always limited. No matter how passionate you are, you can't sacrifice your family and time for the sake of dough.
- A long leavened bread at room temperature is sweeter than a long leavened bread in the refrigerator which tends to give sour shades.
- The fermentation rate of a low hydration dough is much lower compared to that of a high hydration dough.
- The crust of a bread with low hydration is crispier and contrasts nicely with a lacy crumb.
What resulted?
I combined all these ideas in a simple method that, with small adjustments depending on the flour available, anyone can use it successfully at home. The bread does not require many skills because there is no pre-shaping, shaping, scoring, etc. The dough in the last phase is touched very little.
So "Lazy Bread" it's a bread that requires your presence only 2-3 hours in the evening, it ferments itself at room temperature overnight. You can put it in the fridge in the morning and bake it the next day when you have time.
It's a bread with medium hydration, 73% and 25% wholemeal flour. A strong flour (high protein content) will help. If you don't have strong flour you can lower the hydration.
It perfectly combines the special taste of long leavening at room temperature, the crust specific to low-hydration loaves and the lacy crumb texture of the high-hydration breads. A bread that you can simply have it on the family table, especially on weekends. It is made without effort and always comes out special. I called it "lazy bread" because you can do it at home very easily, even when you are a very busy person.
And what is more important is the fact that, if you have a healthy starter and you do some good development of gluten at the beginning, the bread comes out "open" every time. I call it "Lazy" because it ferments slowly due to low hydration and especially because even lazy people like me can do it.
Formula:
80g whole wheat "le 5 stagioni"
245g manitoba white flour Molino Verrini type "0"
230g water
7.5g salt
65g sourdoug starter (100% hydration)
Method:
19:00 mixing flours & water then rest (autolyse)
20:00 knead with starter for 4-6 mins. then rest
20:30 knead with salt for 4-6 mins. then rest
21:00 strong fold on table then rest
21:30 lamination then rest
/* 22:30 coil fold then rest on room temperature ~ 22 degrees Celsius /* - optional
Next morning:
7:00 moved into the fridge to cool down
7:30 shaping like ciabatta then rest
9:30 bake 10 mins. at 250 degrees Celsius on baking steel with steam and 25 mins. at 220 degrees Celsius without steam

we clearly have different concepts of lazy... good video though

[@joerobert7847]

LOL. I am with you there

[@JB-yg3ew]

I'm five minutes in and it's already more than work than I was expecting for an "easy" bread.

[@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee]

for this type of crumb, believe me it's very easy. let's rise the standards. of course no knead bread is more easy (kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJi2fpuqh9ySprc) but for a lacy crumb this is the most simple variant.

[@jeffwells641]

Lol same. I was hoping it was a magical no-knead variant. Oh well. Still impressive. The only difficult part, IMO, is the lamination step. It looks easy enough, but I tried doing it with the 83% dough (from the "No More Sticky Dough" video), and I could definitely see that someone better than I am could get the job done with my dough, but I really couldn't. I technically got it folded into layers though, and my dough feels super, super strong compared to what I'm used to making, so I'm happy. I'll get it eventually. I just can't wait to bake that bread, I can tell it's going to be the best bread I've ever made, since it's doing all the things I could never get my dough to do before.

[@nikinikolakaki9346]

Yessssss!! Finally a "lazy" bread!! If you had left the dough less hours in room temp then shaping could have been possible but I admire you being so versatile and read what the dough needs. In the past when people had to make their own bread for the family (and families were really big) used less hydration and let the dough ferment in ambient temp. So this is a lesson from the past. In Greece, as flours are weak in general, longer fermentation in ambient temp and lower hydration helps make a bread with open crumb and crispy as you nicely point out. Well done!! (music+scenery fascinating as usual)

[@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee]

Ki Niki. I'm thinking now about the ambient temperature in Greece ... The starter were probably stiff. And a bit of salt too. In Romania the same. Thank you!

[@nikinikolakaki9346]

@@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee well, in the past (eg my grandmother used to keep a stiff starter but before 2nd WW and after there were no domestic refrigerators!! Actually, it was not a true starter but she kept a piece of the dough after she had added the salt--just before shaping the bread. She kept it in a clay pot at the coolest part of the kitchen covered in olive oil...and in Crete olive oil is abundant as every local have their own olive trees!I guess due to the mild climate in comparison to the northern countries that was possible and it has been the practice of the people making bread until quite recently) that was the case. In Italy though they are used to keep a stiff starter even nowadays...when you make panettonne you need a stiff starter, I guess it is supposed to be more powerful for demanding doughs. Nowadays things are different and refrigerators are our allies...Thank God!! :)))

[@pkontopoulos]

Mdm Niki, indeed the Greek flours are very weak and high hydration creates floppy results and takes a lot of work to create a good gluten structure. Looking around in stone mills the quality of the resultant flour is even poorer. Also barley is quite common that creates very dense bread and glorious rusks. So we have to settle for weak flours with good taste and make the best of them.

[@nikinikolakaki9346]

@@pkontopoulos I agree with what you point out about the flours. On the other hand I'm not one of those who likes compromises...ha ha ha !! Hopefully, we can find good quality flours in Greece that are not of Greek origin as many people do.

[@NickSzabadkai]

Thanks! You Videos are always an inspiration.

[@julianahamouz212]

Definitely not lazy by my standards lol Thank you for this beautiful video. I will try this approach because I feel like my attempts at shaping always deflate the dough and I end up with a not so open crumb, regardless of the hydration. Your bread is absolutely beautiful.

[@stiglarssen908]

Excellent walkthrough. Just finished two breads following this video step-by-step. Very tasty and I got very close to the same structure and crumb. The only thing I had to improvise on was when I removed the dough from the proofing vessel the morning after. My dough was sticking a litte to the bottom, so it tore the dough a little. Solved this by carefully folding the dough over itself, one fold. Proceeded with the steps from the video after that.

For sourdough bread type, the process in the video is considered very easy!

[@jeffwells641]

@@ivanaguedes7539 It's not the sourdough that makes it difficult, it's the Pan De Cristal - the giant air pockets and lacy crumb. Sourdough is just a different type of leavener - once the dough has reached the first rise there isn't much difference between the two except for flavor. The sourdough may be slower if you used a starter past its peak to get those sour notes, but that's about all. The technique is the same - it would be just as hard to do with yeast, though the order of things would probably be slightly different. A typical Pan De Cristal is much higher hydration and takes about 4-5 more hours of work before you get to that lamination stage. Getting such a similar effect with 75% hydration and a lot fewer stages of kneading and folding is very impressive.

You must make some test for long bulk proofing in the fridge, at 6-8 degrees C. And indeed 2 hours final proof can be too much. Try 30-60mins and see how look, then adjust next time.

Ι follow your youtube channel sometime now as I am a amateur baker and explorer of the bread processes.

I wonder what is the protein level of your flour. Well done and keep up the good work.👍👍👍

[@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee]

This one is strong one, I guess over 14%. But it's not always what the numbers look like. The flour is not very friendly, when I bought it I didn't like it at all. Other 12% protein flours are much better. But slowly I started to feel it and I made beautiful breads with it. But I won't buy it anymore :) If I look at you on my channel, there are clips with successful breads and weaker flours (all purpose, ground semolina, countryside flour, etc.)

I never keep the starter in the fridge. Make an effort for a week or two and you will see the difference. I've been thinking about a significant video about the starter for a long time, I will definitely do it. Thank you!

[@trackie1957]

I use my starter about every three weeks and never feed it in between. When I plan to make bread, I take the starter from the fridge the day before. Pour off dark liquid and stir. Transfer a small amount to a clean container and feed it to 2-3 times it’s weight (If you start with 40gr starter, add 40gr each flour and water). I add the water first, shake it up to mix and oxygenate, then add the flour, shake again and stir to complete blending. Often, this rich feeding will produce a vigorous rise, but if not, one more feed usually does it. If you have stored in the fridge for over a month, it could take a few more, so keep trying and be patient.

Hello from greece. I love your videos. I have reach the point to have nice oven spring and goodlooking and tasting bread. But i need more open crump. The wild stuff. There are several videos on this issue. Minimal shaping and lamination is one part of the equation that do not work with weak e.g a.p. flour. I think the key here is the flour. You need to get a very extensible dough. If i miss something pls advice.😂

His do you make that 65 g of sour dough started? Do u use 1:1:1 ratio to make 65g?

[@matheussilva305]

hi! i’ve been following your videos for a while now and you’ve helped me a lot with sourdough, thank you so much for that! i do have a question though, whenever i try to score my dough after cold fermentation it seems as though it hasn’t developed a “skin” on the outer layer, and so my blade usually drags and i can’t get a proper score.. do you have any tips? i’m thinking maybe my fridge isn’t cold enough (currently at 6ºC) but i would love to hear from you

[@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee]

yes, I think too that your fridge is not cold enough. At 6 degrees fermentation is not stopped the dough will overferment.

@@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee Then if there’s no getting around the fridge being a little too warm, is there a cure - such as leaving it in the fridge a bit longer, or maybe a short stint in the freezer, or do we just need to live with it? (Or get a new fridge - ha!)

Can I do the kneading with kitchen aid at a slowest speed?

[@zhivkominoski754]

Baked it this morning turned out amazing a bit on the darker side, I'm guessing the reason is my starter was feed just with whole wheat flour, and instead of strong bread flour I used all purposes one but it came out perfect

Hi ,, I follow your recipe to the minute detail but somehow my dough is stiffer than yours and the Robaud kneading method cant be used -- any ideas as to why my dough seems stiff ---thx

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@gekngotan8338]

looks interesting and simple but am new to sourdough bread, so do you mind enlightening me as to what is your healthy starter like. Thanks for sharing your passion.

[@BreadbyJoyRideCoffee]

keep it on room temperature not in the fridge, feed it twice a day with smal ration (1:3:3 - 1:5:5) and use it when is at peack

[@zumbafanification51]

Wow ! That is beautiful open crumbs. Letting it proof for added 2hours did not do any damage. Do you know what happened when you overproof your dough?

[@arushigupta8461]

Hi can we mix the dough using stand mixer?

[@abhayumranikar]

Tried the recipe - brilliant!. I also loved the relaxing piano music - who is it by??. Keep up the good work!
